DE NOVISSIMIS self-titled CDR (Ming) 5.98Extreme doom fans, alert! De Novissimis is a Irish (at least, we're pretty sure they're Irish) five-piece who traffic in a totally grotesque, diseased brand of doom-grind that's not too far removed from the same gutter that you would find outfits like Goatsblood, Bunkur, or Catacombs. This private press CD-R boasts a single, almost half-hour long track of grueling sludge that is centered around several key riffs, mostly delivered at a saurian trudge as the droning, downtuned guitars bang out a simple 4 chord dirge for minutes on end while the dueling vocalists trade off deep, bellowing death roars and screeching vomit squeals. It's not completely stuck in magma mode, though....occasionally De Novissimis will suddenly explode into a flurry of extremely noisy and chaotic grindcore, or a quieter, post-rocky passage, before falling back into the black maw of their demonically glacial doom. This is mind-numbingly heavy shit that will send your skull to your knees repeatedly. Fans of the doomcrust stuff that's been oozing out of Baltimore over the past couple of years (Wake Up On Fire, Moonshine, etc.) would lose their minds over this. Packaged in a simple, xeroxed brown sleeve.
